Athens Academy

On Friday, May 15, the seniors gathered in the Myers Gallery and then on Slaughter Field to celebrate together one last time before graduation. They reflected on the building of the Class of 2026, the special dynamics of each advisory, and the many memories they’ve made during their time at Athens Academy.

This year’s celebration included two special surprises for our seniors and their families: a sweet book, "Goodbye Athens Academy," written by parent Meghan Garrard, and a beautiful fireworks show that lit up the night and capped off an unforgettable evening.

Thank you to the many, many people whose hard work and attention to detail made this event so meaningful for our families, especially staff coordinator Audrey Mathis and Vespers Committee Chairs Katherine Alexander and Holly Belger.

Congratulations to the Athens Academy Class of 2026!
